A/N; Jeez guys - I've never had so many followers. Before we go to the next chapter, allow me to address a few things;

1. Yes, I know that some of you don't like my O-C. I'm sorry. I guess that once I've put it in a story it actually makes it easier and it inspires me to write more.

2. Yeah yeah, Connie has a gem now, I know that's upset some of you. But here's the thing; She won't be changing very much - she'll just have some new powers, 'tis all.

With all of that out of the way, let's wrap up this arc.

Chapter 4; This Is Unusual!

Together, the three got Pearl back to the Warp Pad, but before they actually beamed off, Keifer spoke up.

"Steven - mind if I try warping us?" he asked the boy.

"Sure, just visualize where we need to go, then concentrate hard on the power in your gem" he explained. Keifer nodded and Steven and Connie watched as Keifer closed his eyes. He thought long and hard about the Temple when they all suddenly were whisked away by the warp before landing back in the temple. Garnet and Amethyst just stared at them. In their arms was a fainted Pearl, and two more humans with gems.

"I think I'm just gonna go..." Amethyst side-stepped around them and slowly entered her room, not wanting to get caught p in the chaos that was possibly about to transpire.

"What. Happened?" Garnet's tone sounded worried, but also calmly steel, like she was struggling to keep it together.

"It's not their faults!" Steven stuck up for Keifer and Connie as he sat Pearl on the couch. "We were fighting that Citrine Quartz monster when they suddenly blacked out. Then there was a bright flash of light and they suddenly had gems!" that was a mouthful, even for Steven as Garnet just stood there, unsure of what to do.

"He's not lying!" Keifer and Connie said this almost simultaneously.

"We both blacked out from some sort of searing pain, me in my head and Connie on her back" Keifer begun explaining as Garnet listened.

"That's when we were in some sort of void, and two gems appeared before us, telling us that'd they were going to put themselves in us" Connie finished the explanation and Garnet just stood there, unsure of what to do.

"Connie, you need to let your mother know what happened - Pearl will go with you" Garnet finally spoke. "And Keifer you... I... I don't know" this shocked them. Garnet must've seen that Keifer didn't have any family and his scenario as well.

"We'll figure something out" Steven said quickly. "For now, we'll take Connie back home" Garnet nodded as the three went outside, the sun slowly beginning to set.

"Lion!" Connie called out before whistling. Soon enough, their pink steed was before them. Connie and Steven carefully got on followed by Keifer. Lion began to take off and roared, opening a portal for them. Soon enough, they had gotten Connie to her house.

"Oh, there you are!" Piryanka opened the door to see Steven, Connie and Keifer. She also noticed how Steven was shuffling nervously. "What's wrong?" she asked him, looking at her daughter.

"Connie erm... well she um..."

"She's like me and Steven now" Keifer stated flat-out, not wanting to beat around the bush or drag this on. He pointed to his head and then Connie turned around and scooted her shirt down to reveal her gemstone.

"WHAT THE?!" Piryanka jumped back, unsure of what to do.

"Mom, it's fine - I'm fine!" Connie went up to her mom to try and reassure her that she was okay. "Really, I am!" this seemed to settle Piryanka's nerves, if only for a moment. "I'll see you guys tomorrow" Connie waved them bye as she closed the door in hopes of explaining things to her mom.

"I guess that leaves us..." Keifer touched his gem for a moment. "What are we gonna do?"

"I don't know. I guess for now we can head back to the temple...?" Steven was lost in his thoughts as they got back up on Lion. A few moments later, they were back out on the beach. As they walked into the house, Garnet was waiting for them.

"Keifer, you can't go back home" she kneeled down to him. "Your Gemstone is the rarest in the Universe. You have a Ametrine"

"What is that?" Steven asked as Keifer stood there, unsure of what to do.

"Only two of them were ever made by the Diamonds" Garnet stood back up and looked at the two of them. "They were more powerful than White. Luckily, they were on our side in the war after escaping Home World. One of them was shattered by Yellow herself, and the other one appears to have combined with Keifer"

"That's... deep" Keifer just sat down. "If I can't go home, where do I go?" he looked to Garnet, then to Steven.

"You'll stay here, with us. We can train you and Connie together, so you two can learn to harness and properly use your powers" Keifer was at a loss for words. There he was, sitting in the home of his new friend, after getting the most Powerful gem fused into him, then to be told he'd be living with Steven so he could be trained.

"That's SO COOL!" Steven hugged Garnet and begun saying how cool it'd be to have his friend living with him. Keifer just walked outside at looked at the setting sun.
